I was perusing Canadian Poncho this morning, enjoying a fine cup of steaming morning coffee when I heard a knock at my front door. I went to investigate and saw a sharply dressed young man with a book in his hand. I opened the door and asked him, "May I help you with something?"
He smiled and answered, "I'm a Jehovah's Witness and I would like to discuss some things with you."
I said, "Come in and sit down. What would you like to talk about"?
He looked me right in the eye as he took a seat on the sofa and said, "Damned if I know, I've never got this far before!"

That hit a nerve!! I have two handicapped adults living here (not Barb and I lol ) One had Downs Syndrome and the other is Austic.. Kevin is austic 25 years old and fast! If the door bell rings, hes up the stairs, opening the door, and saying "Come in" to ANYBODY!
I made a triangle swivel gate, between the car port, and the bottom of the stairs to the back door!! I put a latch on it, and 2 signs saying "Do Not Disturb" and "No Trespassing" If you open the gate, and come up the stairs, our back door has a sign that says "Do Not Disturb" "Shift Worker Sleeping"
This past year the local Jehovahs Witness come past the gate! and up the stairs! and leave their crap at the back door... I put up a hook and hung up their stuff for them to find in car port Today I saw them on the next street,(I was walking Dog) so I closed the gate, and dragged my garbage can over and put it in the way!...
Hour later the dog goes nuts, Kevin goes roaring up the stairs, and my "resting" wife comes to the door!!! They had moved the garbage can, and opened the gate, and came up the stairs .... I was livid I said some positive statements, but I was not allowed to call Police
I wonder about anyone that comes knocken at the door to sell any thing or promote there buisness or charity,or faith. Its all about the buck and when and how the individuals can get it from you. This thread can get out of control real fast but hey i think we all tell as is.
I like your story Carl almost makes me want to put a moat and draw-brige around my house.
All you have to do is ask to be put on their 'do not call' list. No sense getting yourself upset over it. After all, your front door is public domain. That's how mail or FedEx or pizza delivery gets there.

Naked with a beer in your hand WORKS
actually they might come over more often. i used to have a real stupid message (still do) on my answering machine. I picked up the phone once and the telemarketer (they were nice about it) said sorry they were just listening to my message. so if you call during the day and i don't recognize your phone number i don't pick up.
